    The impeachment must have pushed trump over the edge. First saying a popular late congressman from the area was in hell, and then inciting violence from the stage...

    You have to wonder if he has ever used a dishwasher. Or toilet, for that matter. Or, is he simply demented?

    Expect lots more tweetrums. But... does trump ever do any work? I mean, other than flying around on tax payer money doing campaign rallies?

    I really think this has to be noted in a add throughout the election, this will cause a lot of people to stay home is is hwho would vote for Trump.

    This only appeals to a small part of his base.

    I would bring it up at every debate to make him explain himself.

    Likely hoping some Dem will take the bait and talk about Barron now that "he started it", so that Melania can chastise them again.

    If he's used a dishwasher before, it'd only be as a novelty. Probably he pays a guy to flush his toilet too. As for dishwashers, they're better than ever. I remember when I was a kid my family would joke about how we'd put dishes in the dishwasher to be caressed or that the only thing it'd wash off of plates was the cooties. My only complaint about my modern dishwasher is that the cycle is long. My wife's business has a commercial dishwasher that does a load in 30 seconds. But I don't think you'd want one of those in your house.

    Also, the very idea of someone running a dishwasher 12 times because the first 11 attempts failed drives me crazy. Children do that. Adults should know if the dishwasher ran properly and something didn't get clean, hand wash it. The second attempt won't magically work better.

    He did, and for once it wasn’t something he had taken away.

    Of course, he had to take credit for it, even though he had nothing to do with the bill prior it to getting to him. Trump gotta Trump.


    After the House approved an extension of the minority institution funding in September, Alexander (R -TENN) blocked the proposal in the Senate and moved it to a package of bills tied to the Higher Education Act. Democrats rejected his proposal, throwing the funding into jeopardy.

    Both sides agreed to compromise by adding the FAFSA simplification, which Alexander has been seeking for years. The House and Senate both voted to approve final changes to the bill Dec. 10. It was applauded as a rare instance of cooperation in a Congress that has remained deeply divided over many issues.

    He has, of course, but he paid her off to keep quiet.

    Trump weighs executive order to make results of federally-funded scientific research more accessible:

    https://www.eenews.net/stories/1061836761

    excerpt:
    White House officials are working on an executive order that would boost public access to federally funded research, prompting publishers to panic about the future of their business models, according to people familiar with the plan.

    Ostensibly, the order would follow longtime bipartisan interest in improving public access to research that is paid for by taxpayers.

    It is expected to require that publicly funded science be obtainable for free immediately, building on an Obama initiative, multiple sources said.
